The joint venture facility will grow quickly over the next several years, with the aim of recycling one million metric tons of vehicle tyre material by 2030, representing a third of all end-of-life tyres in Europe. 

The joint venture’s first facility will be located in Uddevalla, Sweden - once fully operational, it will recycle 34,500 tons of used tyres, which is reportedly equal to 40% of Sweden’s annual tyre waste volume.

Scandinavian Enviro Systems is in the process of getting planning to build a new end-of-life-vehicle-tyre recycling plant in Lillesjö, Uddevalla Municipality with an annual capacity capable of recycling half of all end-of-life tyres in Sweden.

With an investment of more than USD30m, the Michelin Group of Clermont-Ferrand, France has started construction of its first ever end-of-life tyre recycling plant in the Antofagasta region of Chile, South America.
